Implement Sync for Device<Bound> in addition to Device<Normal>.

Device<Bound> uses the same underlying struct device as Device<Normal>;
Bound is a zero-sized type-state marker that does not affect thread
safety.

This is needed for types that hold &'bound Device<Bound>, such as
io::mem::IoMem, to be Send.
